The roof junction flashing, face by face
The ceiling stain comes after the repair
Once water has marked a ceiling or wall, fixing the flashing will not make the mark go away. Drywall and paint have to dry out, and some stained finishes need replacing. That is interior work, separate from the roof junction.
Leave the stain as it is until the flashing is done and the area has had time to dry. Painting early makes it harder to tell whether the repair worked. If the stain grows after the repair, tell us, because it can mean a second path the first visit did not show.
New mortar at the reglet
When a reglet is recut or refilled, new mortar or sealant shows along the joint. It may not match the old mortar at first, and some mismatch can remain as it weathers. On a chimney seen from the street, that line may be noticeable for a while.
Tell us if appearance matters to you. We can explain the choices for the joint, including a sealant color that sits closer to the mortar. Water tightness comes first, but we would rather talk about the look before the work than surprise you with a bright line afterward.
Changing the scope after you approve
Sometimes a household decides to add a face, change the metal or hold part of the work for later after approving the estimate. That is fine. Tell us before the work date if you can, so materials and access can be adjusted.
Any change is written down as a revised item with its own figure, and you approve it before it is done. The same applies if we find something new once the roofing is open. Nothing is added to the job, or to the bill, without your agreement.
Keeping people and pets clear of the work
During flashing work, tools, metal offcuts and pieces of roofing can come down near the chimney. Keep children and pets away from the area below while we are on the roof. If the space under the chimney is a patio or pool deck, we mark it off.
Tell us if anyone in the household needs to use a door or path near the chimney during the day. We can plan the work around it. At the end of each day the area below is cleared, and the last pass picks up nails and small offcuts.

Chimney flashing answers for Colee Hammock homes
What does the flashing workmanship warranty cover?
It covers the flashing we installed and the way we installed it, as described in the written record. Parts of the roof or chimney outside the agreed scope are not included, which is why the scope is written out face by face.
Does flashing on a stucco chimney work differently?
The counter flashing has to meet cement plaster rather than brick joints. It may be set into a cut in the stucco or finished against a stop. Cracked stucco near the roof line is checked first, and stucco repair is priced separately.
Will the new sealant line match my mortar color?
It may not match exactly at first. We can discuss a sealant color closer to the mortar, and new mortar at a recut joint may tone down as it weathers. Water tightness comes first, but tell us if appearance matters.
